Now, here are detailed methods on how to make iPhone ringtone quickly.
Two Ways to Change iPhone Ringtone

Way 2: iTunes
iTunes is a traditional way used by many users to manage their iOS devices. You can use it to make iPhone ringtone. However, the process is pretty complicated for many newbies.

- Right-click this song again and tap “Creat AAC Version”.
- Drag this short song to your computer and change its extension from .m4a to .m4r which is the default ringtone format of iPhone.
- Add the m4r song to iTunes library and you can find it in Tones. And you can sync it to your iPhone now. Finally, you’re allowed to set it as your ringtone on iPhone.
Cons:
- The whole process is quite troublesome.
